what do Mancona, Al T, Matt S and lakerfan have in common?

Dave Tallo

They're pretty quiet on the forum these days.  Which is a great lesson from the pointy end of our team: here are four guys who are pretty smart cookies and prolific posters.  But come Kona time - the weeks, not just the days leading up to their race - they have dropped off the net, gone into radio silence, and shed the internet noise machine.  

Takeaway: getting your Game Face on and conserving mental energy starts waaaaay before the 'official' taper.

:-) Well Said! And I can't wait to watch them all race in just a few weeks! So exciting!

I was going to guess they all wear Fruit of the Loom undies, but yours is better.

Amen...can't underestimate the power of focus.

I'm still around but in a different capacity. Race Rehearsal report will be coming soon and I quickly check in on the forum.

I however have spent about 1% of my normal time on slowtwitch, wattage group, etc and for the actual race week I will be pretty unplugged from just about everything.

FWIW, I am starting to spend time in the sauna/steam room and am really enjoying the time with nothing to do but get my head right.

A couple like to Twitter.  Fun following them. 

Go get 'em, guys!
